Talitridae is a family of amphipods. Terrestrial species are often referred to as landhoppers and beach dwellers are called sandhoppers or sand fleas. The name sand flea is misleading, though, because these talitrid amphipods are not siphonapterans, do not bite people, and are not limited to sandy beaches.
Ingolfiella is a genus of amphipod in the family Ingolfiellidae, containing the following species:
Photis is a genus of amphipod crustaceans, containing the following species:
Charactosuchus is an extinct genus of crocodilian. It was assigned to the family Crocodylidae in 1988. Specimens have been found in Colombia, Brazil, Jamaica, and possibly Florida and South Carolina. It was gharial-like in appearance with its long narrow snout but bore no relation to them, being more closely related to modern crocodiles than to gharials.
Styloniscidae is a family of woodlice, including the following genera:
Photidae is a family of amphipod crustaceans, containing the following genera:
Affinine is a monoterpenoid indole alkaloid which can be isolated from plants of the genus Tabernaemontana. Structurally it can be considered a member of the vobasine alkaloid family and may be synthesized from tryptophan. Limited pharmacological testing has indicated that it may be an effective inhibitor of both acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase.

Ingolfiella rocaensis is a species of amphipod within the family Ingolfiellidae. The species was described from a specimen obtained off washed sponges from the Rocas Atoll at a depth of 14 meters. The species is distinguished from others by a small slender seta on the endopod of uropod 1. It is also the first recorded species of the Ingolfiellidea suborder reported in Brazilian waters, as previous records of the Ingolfiellidea suborder show species ranging in waters in the South Atlantic off of South Africa and Argentina.
